Once upon a time, Chris McDonough <chrism@xxxxxxxxx> said: > But if "multilib" means "the capability to distinguish between multiple > architecture packages for the same component and have the ability to > install each simultaneously or independently", smart seems to be able to > do that just fine. That's not what multilib means. It means the ability to take into account 32 and 64 bit libs and apps, and properly satisfy dependencies as appropriate. For example, if on a 64 bit arch I want to install a 32 bit app, the package management tool has to know that if the app requires libabc, it needs to find a 32 bit libabc to satisfy the dep (whether or not the 64 bit libabc is install or available has no relevance). -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
